Mooring Set Up
Submitted by suzi q on Tue, 2019-05-07 20:36
Hi All
Heading over to Mackerel Islands in a couple of months for a week or so. will be suing the moorings they have set there for the week. Just wondering what set up folk use to secure your vessel to the mooring? Have read a couple of stories about boats coming loose and drifting off over there, so keen to here what the best set up is. I'll have a 6.7M Bar Crusher.
thanks all

16mm rope with a 2 foot
16mm rope with a 2 foot plastic guard that prevents it from rubbing on the bow.. Something like clear plastic hose with 24mm internal that can be tied in place to prevent it sliding off .. For the rope we just use our normal launching line that's 35 foot long and looped at both ends . You could double it up if a real storm came in but it shouldn't break if its not rubbing on anything sharp
